    Snow In Seattle

    It snowed a couple of days ago. Just uploaded a few pics of my projects in the yard. The bimmer is a 1991 318is stock right now, but soon to be modded a bunch. The truck in the pics is my '66 chevy pickup. It has almost nothing original besides door panels, which have been shaved of all mouldings. Complete custom suspension which the front end sits on the ground w/ the airride layed out.

          LOVE the truck!!!!

          Does it lay-out in the rear? Do you rail it?

          Fuck... if I had a bagged truck, I'd be so tempted to sit the fucking thing's fat arse on the ground while driving the freeway... every morning...

                  lol.. did you chop the frame for the straight axle, or flip it over the leaves?

                  what engine is in it?

                  we got some snow here, but pitch black out, so no pics. Too bad to, cause its coming down alright.

                    ya, mine has major traction issues, I have 450 hp, it has major isues at the dragstrip, if I floor it it smokes the tires through first gear atleast. Now I got 10 inch wide slicks, hopefully that'll help out some, we'll see next spring.

                        ofcourse not, it lays the front control arms out.
                        Hopefully it'll lay the back out soon, but right now i haven't notched the back end. It has a 4 link w/ coils from factory, so can't do a flip kit since no leafs. The front has 3 inch dropped spindles w/ disc brakes and the tires hit the top of the wheel well as well as control arms hit the ground. Has full air suspension so the front has 8 inches of travel while the back has 10 inches.

                          Never layed out while driving since its my control arms that hit, but in the pics it's layed out, I'll get a better pic of just the truck tomorrow.
